Answer:

A) 80

Step-by-step explanation:

.25x + .4y = 28

also

x + y = 100

so y = 100 -x

substitute

.25x + .4(100 -x)  = 28

.25x + 40 - .4x = 28

-.15x = -12

x = 80

so y = 20

He sold 80 of the 25 cent and 20 of the 40 cent

im guessing yall are rsm kids like me.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If he sold 80 of the 0.25 then that would be 16 dollars. And that way we know that he only sold 10 dollars of the 40 cent ones. If he used any other amount it wouldn't make any sense. Also, sry i cant rly answer this because I didn't understand it either. :(

A printing firm charged $35 for printing 600 sheets and $47 for printing 800 sheets find the formula assuming the relationship i
saveliy_v [14]
Here, Coordinates are: (35, 600) & (47, 800)
Now, Slope (m) = y2 - y1  /  x2 - x1
m = 800 - 600 / 47 - 35
m = 200 / 12 = 100 / 6
m = 50/3

Take any one coordinate into slope-intercept formula:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 600 = 50/3 (x - 35)
y - 600 = 50x/3 - 1750/3
y = 50x/3 + 50/3

In short, Your Answer would be: y = 50x/3 + 50/3

Hope this helps!

What is the recursive rule for the following sequence: -9, -2, 5, 12, ….
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The answer is option (C)=an-1+7

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive rule is a formula that in which each term is expressed as a function of its preceding term(s), meaning in order to get to the nth term you have to express it in a form of the term that comes before it. In our case the a(n-1) term

So for the sequence -9, -2, 5, 12

The nth term is any number on the sequence and

  • -2 is the a(n-1) term for -9
  • 5 is the a(n-1) term for -2
  • 12 is the a(n-1) term for 5

So we need to find out what we have to do to the preceding term to get the next.

To get -2 from -9 we have to add 7 to -9; -9+7=-2

To get 5 from -2 we have to add 7 to -2; -2+7=5

To get 12 from 5 we add 7 to 5; 7+5=12

So the recursive rule would be= a n-1+7

The measure of the angle
miv72 [106K]
First, we know this diagram consists of two horizontal lines cut by a transversal line. Therefore, we know that the given angle that measures 113° and the angle we want to find are alternate interior angles. Since all alternate interior angles are equal, we know the unknown angle must also be 113°.

I hope this helps.
